Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1011045A2] A computer system includes an object-oriented job scheduler for scheduling batch jobs. When a job is defined, a job request object is created, containing details of that job. When a job is submitted for execution, an associated job run object is created, containing details of a first run for the job. Job repetition frequencies and dependencies can be defined by means of associated objects. Candidate job runs in each of a number of job streams are selected for execution, up to a job concurrency limit. This creates an instance of a batch application object. When a job completes, a new job run object is created, containing details of the next job run. <IMAGE>
